This autumn 2026, the pilgrimage "From the Apennines to the Sea with Saint Anthony" returns, guiding participants for approximately 22 km from Forlì to the Hermitage of Montepaolo, a symbolic place of the Antonian presence in Romagna. Led by Friar Nicola Zuin (OFM Conv) and a group of volunteers, pilgrims will experience an intense journey through hilly paths, moments of meditation, and stops related to the life of the Saint.

The event is organized by the Sanctuary of the Most Holy Crucifix in Longiano, in collaboration with the Walk of Saint Anthony, the Saint Francis Walk Rimini–La Verna, and the Umana Dimora association, as part of the regional program "I Love Cammini – Emilia Romagna 2026."

The registration fee is €10 (return on your own) and €14 including return transport organized by the staff (limited spots). Registration is mandatory by the preceding Thursday.
